THE PERFECT WAY TO START 2014!
Take your work to the next level by learning creative surface techniques!
Nothing
in pottery shows off your creativity more than a beautiful surface—the
glazes, the patterns, the textures—they all combine to showcase your
imagination. If you’re looking for new ideas that will get your
decorating ideas in super high gear, check out the workshop coming to
Lexington, KY in February. Here you’ll get to watch some of the
country’s most successful potters as they demonstrate their unique
styles to create truly unique surfaces. Sarah Jaeger’s loose organic
brushwork, Kristin Pavelka’s layered sgraffito and slip decoration,
Forrest Lesch-Middleton’s image transfers, and Akira Satake’s rich
surfaces inspired by the natural world are sure to inspire you for years
to come.

Le Centre MATERIA accueillera, du 10 janvier au 23 février, les sculptures en céramique de Raymond Warren. L’installation Équilibre et gravité invite à prendre part aux jeux des personnages de l’artiste.
Avec Équilibre et gravité,
Raymond Warren fait sourire la matière céramique et crée des mises en
scène présentant les métiers d’art dans une approche installative. La
salle d’exposition du Centre MATERIA, habitée du sol au plafond, amène
le visiteur à découvrir la poésie de chaque élément répondant aux thèmes
de l’équilibre et de la gravité. Accessible, cette exposition est une
invitation à s’initier aux métiers d’art en famille.
Raymond Warren fait valoir
les opposés dans ses thématiques comme dans son choix de matières. Ses
expositions s’élaborent de manière récurrente depuis 1988 autour de la
candeur et de l’inquiétude qui habitent chaque être humain face à son
destin. Il modèle le grès, lourd, sobre et dense, et le transforme pour
suggérer le mouvement et la légèreté. Les personnages qu’il façonne sont
cuits dans un four à bois artisanal. Ce type de cuisson laisse, sur les
différentes pièces, des traces du passage des flammes et de la cendre.
Raymond Warren
vit et travaille dans le village de Bois-Franc, à une quinzaine de
kilomètres au nord de Maniwaki. Diplômé en arts plastiques de l’UQAM, il
a présenté une vingtaine d’expositions solo. Ses œuvres font partie de
plusieurs collections privées et publiques, incluant celle des Musées de
la civilisation de Québec, celle du Musée canadien des civilisations et
celle de la Ville de Gatineau.

leads the visitor to discover the poetry of each element responsive to
issues of balance and gravity. Available , this exhibition is an invitation to learn the art of family businesses.Raymond Warren argued the opposite in its themes as in his choice of materials. His
exhibitions are developed repeatedly since 1988 about the candor and
concern that inhabit every human being towards his destiny. This model sandstone , heavy, dense and sober , and turns to suggest movement and lightness. The characters he shapes are cooked in a wood oven craft . This type of cooking leaves on different parts, traces of the passage of flame and ash .
Raymond Warren lives and works in the village of Bois- Franc , about fifteen miles north of Maniwaki. Degree in fine arts at UQAM , he presented twenty solo exhibitions. His
works are in many private and public collections, including the Museum
